DISTRIBUTED AND NON-STEADY STATE MODELLING OF AN AIR COOLER.

Author(s) : WANG H. W., TOUBER S.

Summary

THE PAPER PRESENTS THE EQUATION DERIVATION AS WELL AS THE SIMULATION RESULTS OF A NON-STEADY STATE DISTRIBUTED MODEL FOR A COMMONLY USED TYPE OF EVAPORATORS -AIR COOLERS. IN CONTRAST TO OTHERS, THE MODEL PUTS THE STRESS ON THE REFRIGERANT MASS TRANSPORTATION OCCURRING IN THE TWO-PHASE FLOW REGION INSIDE AN AIR COOLER. BECAUSE THE MODEL IS PURELY DISTRIBUTED, IT IS APPLICABLE TO VARIOUS KINDS OF TUBE CIRCUIT ARRANGEMENTS OF AIR COOLERS. THE PURPOSE OF THE MODEL IS STUDYING AND OPTIMIZATION OF NON-STEADY STATE BEHAVIOUR OF REFRIGERATING SYSTEMS WITH CAPACITY CONTROL.
